"You guys don’t need to worry about that," Duan Tianya said. "Soone will hand out Beast Exorcism Talismans to you in a mont. If you encounter danger, just crush the talisman and return the way you ca."
The trials at Zhengying Academy occurred once every four years. If every ti resulted in heavy casualties among the young swordsn, presumably no one would be willing to participate.
Having said that, Duan Tianya took out four exquisitely crafted small swords, which one could tell at a glance had been refined through alchemy. He placed them in the front, back, left, and right positions and continuously executed several hand formations.
The four exquisite small swords shimred with red, orange, yellow, and green lights, which gradually converged. Suddenly, the wind and clouds changed drastically. Even though the morning sun had just risen, several streaks of starlight twinkled in the sky.
The crowd was dazzled by a few brilliant beams of light shooting straight down from the sky. They were like lightning in the night, forcing people to squint their eyes. When they opened their eyes again, the spots of starlight had disappeared, and the sky had returned to its previously clear state, while a circular archway made up of four colored pillars of light appeared in front of Duan Tianya.
Through the archway, a sowhat desolate valley was faintly visible, and even the roaring of beasts could be heard. Clearly, this was the site for this trial—Exotic Beast Valley.
"All right, proceed into the valley for the trial in turn. You can act alone or form teams to go together, but each team must not exceed ten people," Duan Tianya said sowhat wearily. It was evident that, although he had used an Alchemy Artifact and even borrowed Heaven and Earth Power, opening the summoning portal had greatly drained his Primordial Energy.
The people in front lined up one by one to enter the portal. After a private discussion, most chose to go in pairs. An extra person ant extra strength. Although according to Duan Tianya, Exotic Beast Valley wasn’t too dangerous, no one wanted to give up the trial easily and miss the great opportunity to join Zhengying Academy.
"Mu Hanyan, this ti without your City Lord daddy to back you up, I want to see if you still have such good luck," a mocking voice ca from Mu Feng behind her.
Mu Hanyan turned and saw Mu Feng’s face, which looked like the whole world owed him money.
"Hmph, a shaless scoundrel who profits off his parents’ positions, why bother with him?" Qu Fengting, who was accompanying him, snorted coldly.
"A loser will always be a loser. Don’t think that just because you’ve taken a Vessel Cutting Marrow Cleansing Pill, you can hold your head high. You don’t even consider your own character, and yet you dare to co to Exotic Beast Valley. It’s simply seeking death," said another young swordsman disdainfully, spitting lightly.
Only then did Mu Hanyan realize that besides yesterday, when he was followed by a few lackeys around Mu Feng, there were several more young swordsn behind Qu Fenghai. These people varied in age and dress, but they shared one thing in common: looking down their noses at everyone else without dignity.
However, it seed that their strength was clearly a cut above the other young ones around; considering the standards of this trial, each was an elite among elites.
It seed that after leaving the tavern yesterday, Qu Fengting had recruited a few good hands.
What exactly was this guy looking for in Exotic Beast Valley?
Thinking of Mu Feng’s tragic fate in his previous life, Mu Hanyan beca even more curious.
Mu Hanyan completely ignored the jeers of these people. If she bothered with every insult, as the number one playboy of Heishi City, she would surely be exhausted to death.
Mu Cheng, however, didn’t look very pleased, muttering to himself that these people were really quite annoying.
